I just got home and discovered what looks like another mushroom that is the same size as the first but it is sort of transluscent. Also, I forgot to mention that I late last night I was looking over my rock with a little LED flashlight and is a crevice there was a red spot. When I shined the light on it for a second, the edges turned yellow. Any ideas on this one?

Mushrooms are doing great, I'm still trying to figure out what the other little red thing is. It is like it has an on/off switch because it closes/changes color so fast when I shine the light on it. I think I am taking an astrea star out of the other tank to see if it will do some cleanup work on my rock.

My mushrooms are growing! Especially the translucent looking one. It has gotten much larger. I might actually be able to get a pic of it now. Unfortunately, I seem to be growing some brown stuff on my rocks. I dropped one of my Astrea snails in there to see if it will take care of it. It really liked my intake the first day, the heater the second day, maybe it will eventually like the rock and do some work on there.

OK, here are some new pics. The first one is the 'shrooms. The red one is obvious and the translucent/pink one is to the lower left of the red. It has gotten significantly larger since it first showed up. The second is the tank as a whole. The third is the side of one rock, don't know what the white thing is, it is not soft, it is more like a barnacle, but not round like a barnacle. I am assuming the red stuff is coraline only it is raised. There are several patches of it on the rock.
